A history lesson, recorded in autumn 1989. Unavailable for over 20 years in any format, Cold Spring Records present
Malfeitor
, the now classic album from
Maschinenzimmer 412
. This was the last release under that name, and what seemed like the final nail in the coffin for the Swedish Black Industrial act. Six years later they rose from the ashes, restructured and resurrected as
MZ. 412
. This is evil incarnate, staring into the abyss. Relentless industrial rituals; darkness fused with machines, your fears and your power. An expression of the coldest music imaginable. With a more lyrical approach than the predecessor
Macht Durch Stimme
(CSR 306CD),
Malfeitor
explores themes of death, with an unequivocal dystopian outlook. Cavernous heavy industrial, primitive machine rhythms, and cold metallic loops created on old synths with very little post-production. What you hear is how it sounded on those original sessions. Originally released on LP in 1989 by Cold Meat Industry, this monumental album is now available for the first time since 2001. This definitive edition has been painstakingly transferred and mastered from the original 4-track tapes, with no unnecessary "padding". Digipak with elegant new artwork by
Abby Helasdottir
(
Gydja
).
In 1987,
Henrik Nordvargr Björkk
,
Jouni Ulvtharm Ollila
, and
Leif Holm
forged a band that would be an outlet for blasphemous prophecies, yet from a unique sonic spectrum. The unholy triumvirate were already hitting hard as
Pouppée Fabrikk
, with Maschinenzimmer 412 unleashing their deepest, darkest personas.
Jonas Drakhon Aneheim
joined in 1995, replacing Holm and thus enacting the change of name to the abridged MZ. 412. MZ. 412 are an act that continues to cover the earth in a nightmarish black veil. Rare releases and even rarer performances have only added to the cult status of these prime movers.
